a letter to her soldier

hello darling.
I hope you are well. I pray for it every day. I am so proud of you.
and I love you so much. so much it almost hurts. every kiss I see a pang sounds in my heart, for in this separation, there is no physical contact. yet, I don't need it to love you.
I feel the deepest emotion of unrepressable love at every moment. I cannot breate without before thinking of you. it has come first in my mind even before living. only under God Himself.
I have your letter. it is the thing I have that you touched last. and it is fear to me. I kiss it, hoping you can somehow feel it. your dog tags are around my neck right now. they show how I am yours in a way different from a ring. I wear them, accepting everything about you, including your job. My soldier. My army. My nation.
you are doing a great thing, darling.
I am so proud of you.
I love you.
